1964 Kennedy Half Dollar, 90% Silver
The first-year Kennedy half, struck just months after the assassination — and one of the most collected coins in American history. This example shows strong detail on both the obverse portrait and the Presidential seal reverse, with good luster still present. No mint mark visible on the reverse, indicating Philadelphia. Details: - Date: 1964 - Mint: Philadelphia (no mint mark) - Denomination: Half Dollar - Series: Kennedy Half Dollar (first year of issue) - Composition: 90% silver, 10% copper - Designer: Gilroy Roberts (obverse) / Frank Gasparro (reverse) Circulated with light wear and some minor surface marks — nothing distracting. A solid, attractive example of this iconic coin. The 1964 Kennedy half was struck in such enormous quantities — over 400 million combined from Philadelphia and Denver — that it was hoarded immediately and rarely made it into everyday circulation. *Generated with Gavel AI — please ask questions if the description doesn't seem right.
